The protein helps to clear away damaged organelles, subunits of a cell which carry out important jobs within it and are vital to its functioning. Two of them - mitochondria and lysosomes - help to ...

For example, mitochondria produce energy, lysosomes recycle waste and the nucleus stores DNA. Although each organelle has a different function, they are similar in that every one is wrapped up in ...

In this study, our results uncover the function and mechanism of CHMP5 in the regulation of cell senescence and bone formation in osteogenic cells. Deletion of Chmp5 causes endolysosomal dysfunction ...

New research uncovers how mitophagy, the cellular recycling of damaged mitochondria, changes dynamically in the aging ...

Think back to that basic biology class you took in high school. You probably learned about organelles, those little “organs” ...
